The Churchill Estate (as well as British Institutions like BBC, British Library and British Pathe that don't allow downloads) are extremely possessive of archive material. There is a substantial amount of British pre-1950 spoken word recordings from the arts, to politicians to royalty - nearly all were put onto 78s for public consumption, so it's OUR heritage. Yet there's no single accessible source for them - they're spread all over the place, so it's good that these Churchill recordings, at least, are freely available.

1) May I suggest that someone edit these reviews and remove the especially moronic ones.
2) May I suggest attaching dates to these speeches. They are random rather than chronological.
3) Thank you Poe for at least one intelligent appraisal of Churchill's stature.
4) I'm reading "Winston's War" presently and it is very good (historical fiction).

These speeches show what a brilliant and prescient man the world had in Winston Churchill. It is truly tragic that, like so many before and after, people refused to believe his words until too late. Fortunately, there was a happy ending to the story, but not before millions died. Were his words heeded, one must wonder what the outcome might have been.

I've heard that you can not drink several pints of whiskey every day, pen any of the most memorable and moving speeches of our time, lead your nation to victory (not even in football) or bang your secretary.
